# dh\_nodejs\_autodocs(1p)

automatically install components doc files

## NAME

dh\_nodejs\_autodocs - automatically install components doc files

## SYNOPSIS

```
  override_dh_installdocs:
      dh_installdocs
      dh_nodejs_autodocs
```

For multiple binary packages:

```
  override_dh_installdocs:
      dh_installdocs
      dh_nodejs_autodocs node-foo
```

Or best:

```
  override_dh_installdocs:
      dh_installdocs
      dh_nodejs_autodocs auto_dispatch
```

## DESCRIPTION

dh\_nodejs\_autodocs automatically install README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md,... for each root component in its `"/usr/share/doc/node-name"` directory.

If no `"debian/*docs"` is found, it does the same for the main component.

### Multiple binary package

- •

  If no argument is given, dh\_nodejs\_autodocs installs the whole auto-selected documentation in the binary package which name starts with "node-". If none exists or if there is more than one, it fails.

- •

  If dh\_nodejs\_autodocs is launched with **auto\_dispatch**, it dispatches auto-selected doc in related binary packages.

- •

  If dh\_nodejs\_autodocs is launched with a binary package name, it installs the whole auto-selected doc in it.
